The curtailed Gameweek 35 concludes at Goodison Park tonight as Everton host Newcastle United in a fixture that has all the makings of a dead rubber.

The two teams are now surely safe from the threat of relegation and appear to be playing for Premier League prize money only over the remaining matches.

But from a Fantasy perspective, there is still interest in the Merseyside clash, with Free Hit managers investing in the likes of Jordan Pickford, Leighton Baines and Seamus Coleman in their one-week refresh.

All start for the home side tonight.

Meanwhile, those without the chip at their disposal, likely take Magpies assets into this match, with Ayoze Perez, Kenedy and budget defender Paul Dummett among the most likely to feature in squads.

Indeed, Perez is the most signed player on show tonight, having commanded over 133,000+ transfers in ahead of Saturday’s deadline.

That follows a rich vein of form from the Spaniard which has produced three goals and three two assists from his last three Gameweek starts.

Perez sits behind Islam Slimani in the attack tonight, with the Algerian starting a Premier League match for Newcastle for the first time since his loan move from Leicester City.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Is there any reason not to get rid of Bailly?

    1. Fantasy Gold
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I’d hold for sure if you have somebody to play in his place this weekend.

      Assess closer to DGW37, he might be back in favour then

  2. cescpistols1
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    GW36 team. 0FT, 1.3 ITB. G2G or should I take a -4 hit to get rid of Alonso?

    DDG
    Dummett Lowton Morgan
    Mahrez Willian Salah Lingard
    Kane (c) Jesus (vc) Barnes

    Ryan Gross vdH Alonso

    1. QuintonFortune25
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Alonso to Vert will defo pay off over this week and DGW37

  3. QuintonFortune25
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    40 point deficit to catch. He has Salah but no City mids. Do I go Salah-less and double up on City mids? If so which two are the best?

    1. Norman Conquest
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      sterling de bruyne

    2. WE GO FOR IT
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Sterling and Sane probably.

      1. QuintonFortune25
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Reckon we can trust Sane will play in the double?

        1. WE GO FOR IT
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          Noone can be trusted to play both tbh. He is as good an option as anybody. Can haul against Huddersfield and/or Brighton even if he comes off the bench

    3. Feloh
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      yes KDB sterling, but I'm sure he will also bring in sterling

  4. The Mantis
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    7 years, 7 months ago

    Morning all, haven't been on here for a while! So who are the "must haves" for GW 37?

    Playing twice for me so far is:
    Lloris / Ryan
    Kompany / Smalling / Chilwell
    Willian / Mahrez / Eriksen
    Kane / Vardy

    That's at least 9 DGW players starting - Am I missing anyone vital? City / United / Arsenal players?

    Thanks

    1. QuintonFortune25
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      City mids (probably Sterling looking the best), Jesus, Kane, Erikson, Spurs and United defenders, Swansea look good enablers also. You've pretty much covered most of the key players expect City attack.

  5. RIDZ
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Is it wiser to keep Alonso in order to get 11 players for dgw37 than ditch him now?

    Salah may out in 37 and it gives much money to upgrade somewhere

  6. Tmel
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    A bit early but how would this be for a - 8 next week?

    Alonso, Salah & Barnes > Laporte, Kennedy & Kane

    (Salah to come back in 38)

  7. cescpistols1
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Play: De Gea or Ryan and Lingard or Gross for GW36?

    1. WE GO FOR IT
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      De Gea
      Lingard

  8. Old Gregg
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    How many hits from now until GW 37 are people taking?.

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Hopefully zero

    2. Defcons are for Kinnear
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      1

    3. Tmel
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Probably an 8 this week and next

    4. asquishypotato
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Ideal, zero.
      Reality, -4 or -8 for next week in prep for the double and then maybe a flutter in the last gameweek lending mini leagues

      1. Old Gregg
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        This.

        I thought i had planned ok in WC in 33. It doesn't feel like it now.

    5. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I was going to roll 2 frees and still do a -8 in 37, but I don't think it will be enough.....so I may do a -4 this week and -8 next just to spread the cost

      1. Old Gregg
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Yes, Colonel I think I will need to something similar

    6. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      1

    7. Jet5605
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I'm looking at -8 over the two game weeks on the basis that the players coming in have doubles and could repay the hit.

    8. Respect My Authoritah
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      2 this week and possibly 1 next week

    9. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Zero hopefully

    10. pjomara
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Probably 4 transfers over next 2 gws, so that'll be 2 hits.
      If Salah is playing and team is leaked that could change as I don't have him.

      1. Old Gregg
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Yes, i'm waiting for AE too. He want's that prem record

  9. trinzoo
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    DDG
    Verto / Robertson / Chilwell
    Alli / Mahrez / Willian / Gross
    (K)ane / Lukaku / Barnes

    Ryan - Lowton / Ibe / Alonso

    1FT, 0.2 ITB

    GTG ?

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years

      Be tempted by Lowton over groß

      1. Ask Yourself

            Same here, wasa disatster but was saved my the FH this week. How did yours go?

            1. trinzoo
              • 11 Years

              67 and a nice move up!

                • 9 Years
                7 years, 7 months ago

                66 here and finally climbing back up my mini leagues, shocker of a season overall though

                1. trinzoo
                  • 11 Years
                  7 years, 7 months ago

                  Same for me, was finishing into top10k for the last 3 seasons. Now, I'm sitting at 130k...

                  1. Ask Yourself
                    • 9 Years
                    7 years, 7 months ago

                    230k and hoping for a top 100k ffs ah well we go again

  10. Tmel
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Willian likely to avoid rotation in the league for the rest of the season?

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Think something’s going on with him and conte. They have a cup final to prepare for so if they’re all good i’d Think so

      1. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        No, he was rested the second game in 34 and with cup final on the horizon Conte won't want to "burn him out"

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          Was subbed off after 60 in the semis

          1. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
            • 14 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            that's correct, with no game for a week afterwards. All the more reason to suggest he gets rotated. Mahrez isn't performing but he's still a better pick with those fixtures

            1. Ask Yourself
              • 9 Years
              7 years, 7 months ago

              I see what you mean I thought we disagreed but I agree

              1. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
                • 14 Years
                7 years, 7 months ago

                " know what you're saying", she said. "But the grass is wet"

  11. Ask Yourself
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    So here’s my plan right, was thinking either Willian or mahrez should go for sterling/Sane/Silva. But i’d Also like city defence and only have enough itb for either a Morgan > City or Willian > City. SO if Willian is indeed in a mess it’d be alright if I did these transfers and benched him as I still have 11 decent DGWers without him right?

    DDG Ryan

    Smalling Vert Morgan* Lowton Tark

    Mahrez* Alli Arnie Lingard Willian*

    Austin Vardy Kane

  12. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Hey guys, do these moves make sense? 1 FT and 0.7 ITB Other suggestions welcome.

    GW36 - Mahrez & Bailly > Eriksen & Naughton for -4 hit (0.1 short on getting Erik)

    GW37 - Lukaku & GroB > Jesus & Silva for -4 hit

    DDG - Hennessey
    Bailly - Alonso - Lowton - Long - Morgan
    Salah - Willian - Son - Mahrez - GroB
    Lukaku - Vardy - Barnes.

  13. Our Tiny Windows
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    I’m 98 points behind my mini league leader. Is there any chance?

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Not really, no

    2. Gobigorgohome
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      No

    3. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Sorry to say ..no

    4. Old Gregg
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Hijack his account and do 25 transfers.

    5. Tired and weary
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      There is a slim chance if you have chips remaining and get lucky

    6. WE GO FOR IT
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Get an explosive player which he doesn't have and TC him in 37. 20+ points from him should give you a chance but it looks tough.

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      His head’s gone

  14. Legomane
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    A. Mahrez > Sterling (-4) (funds for Willian > Silva GW37)
    B. Christensen Willian > Cedric* Sterling (-8) (then Mahrez > Sané/Silva GW37)
    *or Swansea/Newcastle defender 4.7m

    DDG (Ryan)
    Vertonghen Christensen Lowton (Chilwell Alonso)
    Mahrez Son Willian Milivojevic (Lingard)
    Kane Jesus Barnes

  15. Dreaming of glory
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    36 pts behind mini lg leader. He has wc & dgw. I have tc.

    Know he will get kane in & likely captain for dgw.

    What can i do to avoid kane and close gap?

    1. Legomane
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      You could triple up on Erik Alli Son and TC Sterling but it's risky...

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I think TC Jesus or sterling

  16. Goalosaurus
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Anyone else considering triple Spur attack for the run-in? Fixtures look favourable, although maybe not as much as Man City's.

    Fixtures: Wat (H), West Brom (A), Newcastle (H), Leicester (H)

    1. Legomane
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Yes, I would on WC. Relatively happy to be stuck with Kane Son and Vert though and City in to prioritise.

      1. Goalosaurus
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        On WC with Kane, Erksen, and Son - think there is a good chance of hauls from any.

        Only 2 x Man CIty players though, tough to balance. Although Salahless anfield express lineup would solve that problem.

  17. Ask Yourself
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    As it stands how would this team be for 37

    DDG

    Smalling Kompany/Laporte Vertonghen

    Arnie Lingard Alli Sterling

    Vardy Austin Kane

    1. Legomane
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      1 city short (prefer 3 city attackers over Kompany or Laporte personally), rest is very good imo.

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Thank you! Alternative would be a -4 to lose alli and get Sane which i’m not wild about.
        Or having Morgan instead of city defence and benching one of the above for sane etc. Just feel though city Def is guaranteed points when if they play one

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          When = Even if*

        2. Legomane
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          not wild about Sane over Alli to be fair, similarly explosive

  19. Jet5605
    • 11 Years

    Projected minutes for Salah against Stoke? Think Kane or Eriksen could be the best captaincy picks.

    1. RUUD!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      80 I would say

      1. Legomane
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        stretchered off on 80 mins?

    2. Legomane
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      If I was Klopp, I'd give him the day off... 🙂

    3. Andy'81
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I'm going to go for zero, reckon he could get rotated this GW with Pool focusing on the CL games, we'll likely get a leaked line up pre-deadline though.

    4. kinghenry14
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      70 mins after G and A

    5. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Could depend on tonight.

  20. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Currently this is my team for gw37 no hits
    Ddg
    Bertrand mawson Alonso
    Sterling mahrez son willian Lingard
    Kane vardy

    Is that good enough?

    1. Jet5605
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Looks good but given City's dream fixtures it might be worth getting a second attacking asset like Silva or Jesus.

      1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Difficult to nail the second city mid or else I would get him. Since I have vardy and Barnes with Kane it takes a -8 maybe -12 to get Jesus and Sterling at the cost of barnes

      2. Squashed
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        wont sweat too much if you dnt hve jesus.
        would be better if u have 2 out of 3 of. silva sane sterling.
        im not sold on bertrand, i think that money can be spent elsewhere by getting a sgw player.

        1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          Already have Bertrand in gw34.doing Salah +tark to mawson + Sterling

    2. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 9 Years

      Needs City pal. Jesus/Sterling

      1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…

    Any insider knowledge on Liverpool team tonight?

  22. Botman and Robben
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    I am 50 points behind top 10k according to Gargatron. Can I hack it into this group or is this a bridge too far? Only got BB chip left.

    1. Legomane
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      BB could turn it for you if lots above you drop back, it's a very long shot...

      I'm 63 back from 10k, 38 back from 20k - if I can squeak 20k I'll be astonished (TC37)

    2. Feloh
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      lucky for you guys, i am 30 pts back from 100K with only TC left, would be immense for me if I were to hack myself in there

    3. dmcqt
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Bench boost is probably on average worth about four points a player, so probably around 16 points (keeping in mind that mostly they'll be bench fodder). This leaves you 34 points to make up. It's possible, though there's a lot of convergence of teams at the top now (everyone getting Kane and Jesus, Sterling and a selection of other Tottenham and Man Utd players). Good luck anyway!

  23. fkmzcgp
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Get rid of 2 for Man City players:
    A) Son

    Thoughts on Ben Davies?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years

      Risky with rotation but good attacking returns. I m going vert instead

  26. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Hey guys, what would you do with this lot? 0.7 and 1 FT. Keen to get Eriksen/Kane, Jesus and Sterling/Silva over the next two weeks but how do I enable with minimal hits?

    DDG - Hennessey
    Bailly - Alonso - Lowton - Long - Morgan
    Salah - Willian - Son - Mahrez - GroB
    Lukaku - Vardy - Barnes.

  27. Frank Koscielny
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    A) Mahrez to Sterling
    B) Lukaku to Kane
    C) Both for -4
    D) Save FT

    Rest of attack is Salah, Willian, Son, Hojbjerg, Vardy and Murray

    1. GAMBIT
      • 11 Years

      I'm actually looking to get rid of Willian before Mahrez

      Thats just plain dumb to do that, kane wants that golden boot as much as i cant see him getting it, but take that into consideration and the fact he's imo the best striker in the league why wud you not have him???? Spurs can secure 3rd aswell

      Considering. This weekend will probably decide it for sure.
      A lot of people/pundits saying he looks off the pace.

    Right, on wild card. How does this look? Very cheap def!
